Why does Australia refuse to protect their designers?
Australia’s flawed intellectual property laws
So why does Australia provide Copyright laws and Intellectual property rights to artists and creative industries such as fine art, graphic design & photography yet leave product designers open to be copied?
Under the current IP laws unlike works referred to as fine art, design of objects and furniture is not entitled to copyright protection and are left vulnerable to copying. I have been one of many designers targeted by large companies ready to make money from unprotected designers here in Australia.
Australia’s retail landscape may play a major part in the decision to keep designers unprotected. Much of our retail in Australia is made up of replica’s. Stores like Kmart, Target, Freedom, Bunnings and Matt Blatt.
All these retailers hold an arsenal of replica rip-offs on their showroom floor so making it illegal will put these businesses in trouble. In fact, one of the biggest culprits is Westfarmers the conglomerate owning many of the offending companies employing 223,000 workers with a revenue of $68.44 Billion (2017) it’s no wonder the cries of the small Australian designers aren’t being heard. With figures like this creating change which will affect many of these company’s bottom dollar just adds to the friction in the uphill battle the Australia design industry faces.

I was approached by what I thought was a legitimate OTC desk offering discounted BTC purchases. After transferring 14.6 BTC (over $900,000 USD), the desk went silent. My account access was revoked, and I realized I had been conned.
BitReclaim came to my rescue. Their smart contract audit team analyzed the entire transaction chain. They found my BTC had been routed into a Panama shell company’s wallet, then to multiple mixing services.
Through persistence and legal filings, BitReclaim managed to recover 9.2 BTC. The fact that they even recovered over half still amazes me. They updated me daily through a secure Signal channel.
For anyone considering recovery: contact BitReclaim.com immediately, open a case with them via email, or speak to their 24/7 support team. They specialize in tracing funds through OTC fraud and have established relationships with exchanges to freeze assets fast.
A fake exchange asked me to pay “tax clearance” before I could withdraw. I foolishly sent $67,000 more before realizing it was a scam.
BitReclaim.com was the only firm that treated me with compassion. They reconstructed every transaction and liaised with compliance teams. Within two weeks, I recovered $55,000.

I once believed I had found a golden opportunity in a new online investment platform that promised exceptional returns on Altcoin trading. The platform looked professional, the communication seemed trustworthy, and I invested a total of 35,000€ of my savings. For weeks, everything appeared fine until one day, the website vanished and all communication with the so-called investors stopped. My entire investment was gone, stolen by heartless online fraudsters.The devastation was overwhelming. That money represented years of work, sacrifices, and dreams. I felt trapped, powerless, and betrayed. Just when I had almost given up hope, I came across Washington Recovery Pro, a team of specialists in financial and crypto asset recovery.Their reputation for helping scam victims encouraged me to reach out.From the very first consultation, they treated my case with seriousness and compassion.They traced blockchain transactions linked to my stolen Altcoin, identified fraudulent wallets, and engaged advanced recovery strategies. Unlike many empty promises I had seen online, their process was transparent. They kept me updated at every stage.Weeks later, the impossible happened: Washington Recovery Pro successfully reclaimed my lost Altcoin worth 35,000€. I was reunited with funds I had already written off as gone forever. The sense of relief, gratitude, and justice cannot be described in words.Thanks to Washington Recovery Pro, not only did I recover my Altcoin, but I also regained trust that justice against online fraud is possible…
